How to perform a site-survey on a remote Mikrotik

I thought I would share a very simple script tool I often use when I need/want to perform a wireless site-survey on a wireless connected remote mikrotik.

First - make a script , System Scripts , +

Name of the script: ManualSiteSurveyToFiles-wlan1-90seconds
Paste this in the body of the script:

/interface wireless scan wlan1 duration=90 save-file=ManualSiteSurvey-wlan1-90seconds--txt.rtf

:delay 10
exit
quit
end



Now - when you want to perform a site-survey on a remotely connected Mikrotik simply go to System Scripts , then click on ManualSiteSurvey-wlan1-90seconds--txt.rtf then click on the [Run Scipt] button. The remote Mikrotik will disconnect for a little over 90 seconds then re-connect. After the remote Mikrotik re-connects, go to Files , click-and-hold on ManualSiteSurvey-wlan1-90seconds--txt.rtf and drag it to your desktop. After it is on your desktop, double-click on the file ManualSiteSurvey-wlan1-90seconds--txt.rtf and it will open up and you can read the results of the site-survey.


Hey - if this helps anybody , please post a :slight_smile:
